Whisky Men at Work.

CINCINNATI, September 14.-The Ma
tional Distillers' Protective Association
to-day resolved to make a collection of
$4,000 Immediately from wholesale
dealers and distillers for use in Ten
nessee. A long report from the COM
mittee on resolutions was adopted
which states that it is the first duty of
the association to use its highest efforts
for the correct education of public
opinion on the subject of the liquor
trade in its relation TO the individual,
the State and the society. The associa-
ton is opposed to prohibition, general
or local, because they. believe it to be
wrong in principle, Impossible of en-
torcement, and promotiYe of the worst
forms of deceit and hypocrisy. 1t
endorses tax or license system
and favors State enactment i'm.
posing a reasonable license that
will not amount to prohibition.
1t deprecates the efforts OF men in
high public positions to drag the wine
and spirit business into the area OF
politics. 1t speaks of the triumphs of
the liquor cause in Michigan and Texas,
as showing how they can best resist
the attacks of their enemies by an open
discussion, and appeals to the common
sense OF American manhood.
